I have no idea how you would do that in a way that would always work.

I can do it manually for the block containing the empire state
building in NYC:
http://www.geocodezip.com/example_geo2.asp?waypts=yes&addr1=empire%20state%20building&geocode=1&addr2=empire%20state%20building&waypt=(40.748433,-73.984554)&&waypt=(40.749787,-73.987751)&waypt=(40.749114,-73.988264)&geocode=2&walking=yes

But I have to tell it to create walking directions because of one-way
streets.
